STAR WARS™ Episode I: Racer

Still cool tho this day! I have a blast playing! Would like to see some battlefront-like, or Squadrons-quality-like remake of Episode I: Racer. Would be dope.

SW Racer came in period when Wipeout and F-Zero are the best in the genre. Except for Extreme G and some random clones, we don't have much options The gamedevs don't have much access to the source material so they have to be very creative A fast, sharp and curious SW game that in the end you need Jedi's reflexes to winning the race hehe

Controls are a bit strange (left on WASD and right on Arrow Keys) but thats old-school gaming for you. Crashes rarely after finishing race but it's negligable.

You know the nostalgia just hit so hard. My first game and now i can play it agin. 10/10 Buy it, play it now!

TL;DR - despite a couple areas that remind you this game was released during the Playstation/N64/ATI Rage/NVidia TNT/3DFX Voodoo days and possible wonky controls, it's still a terrific game and worth getting. First off, this game works terrifically in Wine on both the Mac and Linux. So if you don't have a Windows machine, don't fret - Wine's got your back. Second, this game runs extremely well in Windows 10. I installed it on machines ranging from a Core 2 Quad with GeForce 8500 graphics to a Core i7-8086k with Radeon Vega56 graphics, and both machines produced 1080p/60 effortlessly. I also put it on my wife's Core i3-7100u laptop with Intel 620 graphics and it ran a smooth 60 fps on there as well. The only thing that can be weird for those of us that played it previously on the PC, Mac, or any of the consoles it was originally released for is the controls. If you have a DirectInput controller (Logitech F310 on "D" mode, for example), the controls can and will be exactly how you remembered them working on a PC or Mac with a dual analog stick controller (and can be set to match the DualShock controls on a Playstation). For Xinput controllers, however (Xbox 360, Xbox One, Logitech F310 on "X" mode), setting the buttons can and will get a little weird as the triggers are seen as an additional axis instead of a pair of buttons. DirectInput and Xinput flight and driving controllers will also work. Keyboards and mice make for weird controls here, though. Still, this game plays great even today, looks good outside of cutscenes, and the terrific compatibility with Wine makes this worth a purchase for anyone that remembers and loves this game. I'd highly recommend playing this with a gamepad or other controller, however.
